Aerodynamic actions on three two-dimensional rectangular cylinders were studied in steady and accelerating wind tunnel experiments. The aim of these experiments was to determine how body aerodynamics is modified during flow acceleration. The accelera

This paper details a downburst event that occurred on June 19, 2003, where both wind and wind-induced pressure data were recorded at the Texas Tech University Wind Engineering Research Field Laboratory (WERFL). This event displayed rapid changes in w

This study investigates the effects of a wedge-shaped windbreak on the flow characteristics behind it. Different design configurations with front angles of 18? < ? < 90? were considered in CFD analysis and wind tunnel experiments. Both mean flow and

The occurrence of cascades – that is, progressive failures – has been reported in the majority of the serious incidents involving transmission lines worldwide. During cascades, the failure of a line component overloads the structural system, trig

Progressive failures, or cascades, have played a major role in numerous transmission system collapses around the globe during severe wind and ice storms. The failure of a line component overloads the system and initiates a failure sequence that can c

To investigate the flow field evolution and resultant aerodynamic characteristics of a square cylinder during flow acceleration, large-eddy simulations were undertaken to simulate flow with a dimensionless acceleration rate ap of 0.0048. The adopted

Far-lee wind flow characteristics behind 2D wedge-shaped obstacles with the front slope angle θ varying from 0° to 90° were explored through experiments and numerical simulations. The objective of this research was to study the effect of θ on win

Across much of the world, wind gust data are continuously measured by Automatic Weather Stations (AWS). However, the meteorological origin of individual extreme gust events within these datasets are seldom automatically assigned. To overcome this, Se

The Great Barrier Reef (GBR) coral coverage is in rapid decline from severe and sustained pressures from lagoon water quality, crown-of-thorns starfish (COTS), coral bleaching, tropical cyclones, pollution and diseases. The two recent GBR coral bleac

This paper reviews 5 existing models for predicting wind characteristics, namely the mean wind velocity and turbulence intensity, in the sheltered area of single or multi-row windbreaks. The paper briefly presents the mechanism of wind flow around wi
